Back in 2013, it was revealed that the fan-favorite PlayStation franchise Ratchet & Clank would be making its way onto the big screen in 2015. Now, Rainmaker Entertainment and Blockade Entertainment have debuted the first official poster for the film which you can check out below!
The film is based on the Insomniac Games franchise. The games focus on two unlikely heroes as they struggle to stop a vile alien named Chairman Drek from destroying every planet in the Solana Galaxy. Ratchet is the last of his kind, a foolhardy “lombax” who has grown up alone on a backwater planet with no family of his own, while Clank is a pint-sized robot with more brains than brawn.
The Ratchet and Clank characters were first introduced in 2002, with the games quickly becoming a successful series exclusive to Sony’s PlayStation consoles. They’ve sold 26 million copies worldwide. The most recent installment, Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault< was released in late 2012, but a “re-imagining” of the original game is set to be released in the first half of 2015 alongside the film.
Directed by Jericca Cleland from a script by TJ Fixman (who penned all of the video games), Ratchet & Clank will feature James A. Taylor and David Kaye reprising their voice roles as the titular characters.
